Excellent Client Reviews

Attorney W. Scott Lawler brings more than 35 years of legal experience to every client engagement and is licensed to practice in both Arizona and California. His approach is grounded in careful analysis, practical judgment, and a commitment to helping clients make informed decisions with confidence.

The firm operates through a modern, primarily virtual model, allowing individuals, families, and business owners to receive efficient, responsive legal guidance wherever they are located. This structure provides accessibility without sacrificing personal attention.

As a client-centered practice, we take the time to understand your goals and concerns so we can develop clear, customized strategies. Whether you are seeking to avoid probate, establish a revocable living trust, plan for incapacity, protect future generations, or structure a business transition, our focus remains the same: clarity, protection, and long-term stability.

What Sets Us Apart

Clients of The Lawler Group work directly with an experienced attorney from start to finish. Your planning is not delegated or diluted — it is personally guided with careful attention to detail and long-term consequences. 

Our process is structured and intentional. From initial consultation through design, drafting, and formal execution, each step is handled with clarity and precision.

While most planning meetings are conducted virtually for convenience, we personally oversee formal signing ceremonies to ensure your documents are properly executed and legally compliant. These ceremonies are typically held in person — either at a client’s home or at our meeting location in Chandler, Arizona — so every detail is handled with care. 

Because our practice integrates both estate planning and corporate law, we are uniquely positioned to address the intersection of business ownership, asset protection, and generational planning. This allows us to design strategies that consider not only today’s needs, but the long-term stability of your family and your enterprise. Thoughtful planning requires more than documents — it requires judgment, foresight, and trusted guidance. That is the standard we bring to every client relationship.

Qustion-Mark Frequently Asked Questions

A: The cost varies depending on your business needs. Many business law attorneys in Chandler offer flat-rate services for standard tasks and hourly rates for more complex legal matters. Investing in legal guidance early can save your business from significant expenses later.

A: A business law attorney can review, negotiate, and enforce contracts to protect your interests. In the event of a dispute, they can represent your business in mediation, arbitration, or court to seek a favorable resolution.

A: It's ideal to hire a business law attorney during the early stages of your business—especially when forming an LLC, partnership, or corporation. Ongoing legal support is also crucial when signing contracts, managing employee issues, or facing potential disputes.

A: A business law attorney in Chandler offers legal services including business formation, contract drafting and review, dispute resolution, mergers and acquisitions, compliance advice, and representation in business litigation. These services help ensure your company operates within legal boundaries and avoids costly legal pitfalls.

A: Licensed in California since 1988, our firm is qualified to help individuals navigate the intricacies of corporate law and estate planning throughout the state. We diligently stay up to date on all of California's laws and regulations – guaranteeing our clients the highest standard of accurate and thorough legal representation.

A: Most definitely, yes! You need to have a plan in place so that your assets are distributed the way you want, to prevent disagreements among your family members and to make proper arrangements for your health care and management of your finances if you are ever incapacitated.

A: No. This is a common misconception. Estate planning is in no way related to how much money you have, whether you are a married, or whether or not you are a parent.

A: This is certainly an option. But please keep in mind the following two (2) facts.

• A Last Will and Testament will have to go through a Probate Court proceeding. So you should educate yourself on what Probate is along with the costs and pitfalls of Probate. You can start by looking on this page at the FAQ “What is Probate?”

• Legal Zoom and law firms provide two different services. This is why the cost is different. Legal Zoom offers form documents you fill out and execute yourself. It does not give legal advice. A business attorney in Chandler, on the other hand, counsels you and gives you legal advice based on your specific circumstances. We will customize your documents, ensure they are signed with the proper formalities, and pick up the phone when you call with questions. If these things are not important to you, Legal Zoom may be your best option. However, if these things are important to you, you should take the next step to determine if working with us is the right fit for you. Book a Structured Legacy Planning Session here.

A: Since you, your family and your circumstances are unique to you, we cannot recommend a package and price until we hold the Structured Legacy Planning Session and review your Family Profile with you. During this session, we discuss all of your options and you will choose the option that works best for your family.
